Artists on Elgin is “a place to be” for the month of October

SUDBURY, ON – September 23, 2014 – Artists on Elgin will be featuring a place to be, an interactive installation by Sarah King Gold- artistic director at Myths and Mirrors, for the month of October. This installation is one in which the artist encourages the public to participate in the creative process. There will be a closing reception held at Artists on Elgin on Thursday, October 30th from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. in order to reveal what the public has created alongside King Gold. The interactive installation will be at Artists on Elgin for public participation throughout the month of October.

This installation is an invitation to truly be immersed in the artwork. A place to be offers a unique experience to enjoy and participate in the artists' creative process. Visitors can relax on a couch which doubles as an art piece while adding their own piece of art to one of the many sketch books laid out for public participation.

"It is rare that we have an interactive installation in our gallery space," explained Courtney Natale business promotions co-ordinator for The Northern Artist Gallery/ Artists on Elgin. "It is great to have this kind of variety between artists featured here, and even more fantastic when visitors get to participate in creating the art.

The public is encouraged to visit Artists on Elgin from October 3rd- 30th to enjoy and participate in the works by Sarah King Gold. All are invited to come back on October 30th from 5 p.m. – 7:00 p.m. for the closing reception where King Gold will be in attendance to speak about her work.
